A Free Office Suite That's Especially Designed For Kids: "OOo4kids is, as the name implies, a version of Open Office (or OpenOffice.org, hence the 3 O's) that's specially designed for use by 7 to 12 year olds. The menus are trimmed down to the bare minimum, to keep things easy. The word processor, for example, allows only a choice of font, size, color, and bold/italic/underline. The other options are still there, and can be enabled if required, although the facility to do so is password-protected so it's up to you whether or not to tell the child about it.
OOo4kids is a great idea, especially if it encourages kids to use computers for something other than playing games or social networking. The program is free, quick and easy to learn, and gives them a real feeling of doing grown-up things with their computer.
